Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows terminology, tools, and examples throughout. Windows OS versions are listed first, domain join instructions link only to Windows documentation, and file-level permissions are described exclusively using Windows ACLs/DACLs. Troubleshooting and mounting guidance reference Windows-specific resources, with no equivalent Linux instructions or examples provided. Linux support is mentioned only briefly and generically, without actionable steps or parity in guidance.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux examples for mounting Azure file shares using AD DS authentication (e.g., using cifs-utils, mount.cifs, and Kerberos configuration on Ubuntu/RHEL/SLES).
- Include links to Linux domain join documentation (e.g., using realmd, sssd, or samba for joining Linux VMs to AD DS).
- Describe how file and directory permissions can be managed on Linux clients, including mapping Windows ACLs to POSIX permissions or using tools like 'smbcacls'.
- Add troubleshooting guidance for Linux mounting errors, similar to the Windows troubleshooting link.
- Ensure that all steps and prerequisites are presented with both Windows and Linux options, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only instructions.
